Job
Interview Questions:
1.
Tell me about yourself:
The most often asked question in interviews. You
need to have a short statement prepared in your mind. Be careful that it does
not sound rehearsed. Limit it to work-related information. Talk about things
you have done related to the job you are interviewing for. Start with the item
farthest back and work up to the present.
2.
What experience do you have in this field?
Speak about specifics that relate to the
position you are applying for. If you do not have specific experience, get as
close as you can
3.
Do you consider yourself successful?
You should always answer yes and briefly explain
why. A good explanation is that you have set goals, and you have met some and
are on track to achieve the others.
4.
What do people say about you?
Be prepared with a quote or two. Either a specific statement or a
paraphrase will work. Jill Clark, a co-worker at Smith Company, always said I
was the hardest workers she had ever known.
5.
Why do you want to work for this organization?
Sincerity is extremely important here and will
easily be sensed. Relate it to your long-term career goals.
6.
What kind of salary do you need?
A loaded question. A nasty little game that you
will probably lose if you answer first. So, do not answer it. Instead, say
something like, “that’s a tough question. Can you tell me the range for this
position?” In most cases, the interviewer, taken off guard, will tell you. If
not, say that it can depend on the details of the job. Then give a wide range.
7.
Are you a team player?
Be sure to have examples ready. Specifics that show you often perform
for the good of the team rather than for yourself are good evidence of your
team attitude. Do not brag, just say it in a matter-of-fact tone. This is a key
point.
8.
What is your philosophy towards work?
The interviewer is not looking for a long or
flowery dissertation here. Do you have strong feelings that the job gets done?
Yes. That’s the type of answer that works best here. Short and positive,
showing a benefit to the organization.
9.
Why should we hire you?
10.
Tell me about your
dream job.
11.
Why do you think you
would do well at this job?
12.
Tell me about your
ability to work under pressure.
13.
How do you propose to compensate for your lack of
experience?
First, if you have experience that the interviewer does not know about,
bring that up: Then, point out (if true) that
you are a hard working
quick learner
14.
Describe your
work ethic.
15. What is your greatest strength?
16. What is your greatest weakness?
17. How do you handle stress and pressure?
18.
Describe a difficult
work situation / project and how you overcame it. Give concrete examples
of difficult situations that actually happened at work. Then discuss what you
did to solve the problem. Keep your answers positive ("Even though it was difficult
when Jane Doe quit without notice, we were able to rearrange the department
workload to cover the position until a replacement was hired.") and be
specific. Itemize what you did and how you did it.
